3x+y=6

4x+2y=8

how do you solve this?

2 answers

3x+y=6
4x+2y=8

substitute
y = -3x + 6

4x+ 2(-3x + 6) = 8

4x -6x +12 = 8

-2x + 12 = 8

-2x = -4

x = 2

y = -3x + 6
y = -3(2) + 6
y = 0

(2,0)
3x+y=6
4x+2y=8

y = 6 - 3x

4x + 2(6 - 3x) = 8
4x + 12 -6x = -4
-2x = -8
x = 2

Substitute 2 for x in the first equation to find the value of y.
